Question calibre-tytpe program for gutiar tabs
does anyone know of a program like calibre which can be used to organize guitar tab files please? ( guitar pro, powertab....)

I have googled to no avail, except for one abandoned freeware project & I had a most disappointing reply from the publishers of guitar-pro:
no we have no plans to write a library program, and
no - we will not tell you how to extract title, artist etc metadata from our proprietary file formats: GP5, GPX...

A very basic level of support would be to be able to add such files to calibre , and to manually set title and set artist as "author", then configure an open-with plug in for viewing. Is that on anyone's wish list or am I the only one in search of such a a facility ?
